Journal Title: Harsukh Educational Charitable Society International Journal of Community Health and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: The association between HbA1c and cardiovascular risk is inconsistent in non-diabetic subjects. In the present study, we examined the association between HbA1c and presence of angiographically proven coronary artery disease (CAD), its severity and complexity in non-diabetic subjects. Material & Methods: A hospital based observational study done on 100 patients in Department of medicine, Government Medical College, Bharatpur, Rajasthan. Severity of CAD was calculated by GENSINI Score. The diagnostic procedure was performed using Seldenger’s technique, all images were recorded digitally. Results: The present study done on 100 patients, male gender pre dominated (80%). Most of patients were overweight with mean BMI = 27.9±3.6.The most common cause of performing coronary angiography was unstable angina (45%). Seventy patients were in high risk group with (HbA1c 5.7 – 6.4%) while only 30 patients were in low risk group with (HbA1c <5.7%). Conclusion: We concluded that HbA1c level is a useful marker and has a prognostic value to predict the severity of CAD among non-diabetic patients.
